Subject: Re: set_bit() is broken on i386?
Date: Fri, 20 Jan 2006 17:38:35 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060121013835.24035.qmail@web34114.mail.mud.yahoo.com> (raw)

Would it not be more correct to have "+m" to show that the register is both an input and an
output, and nothing more?
Or is set_bit supposed to be a general barrier or fence?

static inline void set_bit(int nr, volatile unsigned long * addr)
{
	__asm__ __volatile__( "lock ; "
		"btsl %1,%0"
		:"+m" (ADDR)
		:"Ir" (nr));
}
